DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in code-projects Online Appointment Booking System 1.0. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file /getDay.php. The manipulation of the argument cidval leads to sql injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

AnalysisAI

CVE-2025-7517 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in code-projects Online Appointment Booking System version 1.0, specifically in the /getDay.php file's cidval parameter. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to inject arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion. The vulnerability has been publicly disclosed with exploit code available, and exploitation requires no special privileges or user interaction, making it an immediate threat to deployed instances.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability exists in a PHP-based web application (Online Appointment Booking System) that processes user input through the /getDay.php endpoint. The cidval parameter is insufficiently sanitized before being incorporated into SQL queries, allowing attackers to break out of the intended query context and execute arbitrary SQL statements. This is a classic CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component, 'Injection') vulnerability specifically manifested as SQL injection. The root cause is the failure to implement prepared statements or parameterized queries, instead concatenating user-controlled input directly into SQL command strings. The affected CPE would be cpe:2.3:a:code-projects:online_appointment_booking_system:1.0:*:*:*:*:*:*:*.
